Trinity Christian School Reviews

TCS has a wonderful, caring and Christian environment. The Preschool program boosts great teachers and a challenging curriculum. I am a public school teacher so I am able to compare their curriculum with that of the public schools. TCS is above in every way. My son will be attending Kindergarten this upcoming year and we have decided that TCS is the right place for him. I just love the community feel, diverse student backgrounds, and high academic and behavior expectations.

I love tcs! my daughter is in kindergarten and she is reading on a third grade level. the teachers are very caring and concerned about the students academic and spiritual instruction. Trinity is a five star school in my book!

I am very, very, very disappointed in Trinity. I feel the school is all about money but you can't see were the money is going. The school needs alot of work done, everything is old in the school and the teachers act as if they don't care. They are just there for a pay check.

My kids have been students at TCS since 2004 and I have seen a steady decline in the academics. TCS primary focus is money. The student to teacher ratio in elementary is not acceptable for a private school. They advertise small classes, but cram as many kids as there are in public school. When asked about it; they respond what the state allow them to have. If we wanted state standards we would put them in public state school. I took my kids out for one year and attended a different private school and they were bored as they had to learn the things they learned in the previous grade. The one thing they are consistent on is asking for more and more money.

i have been at Trinity since the fifth grade this will be my fifth year here. i am in 9th grade and i personally think Trinity is an awesome school i think they care for the students and i love how are school supports the basketball and the football and also how are school has such great school spirit in all grades. Yeah, this school can be strict but that is all schools. If your going to send your child to a school send them here they can get the knowledge they need and also learn about God.

My child has attended TCS for the past two years. This will be the 3rd year. I am disappointed in the school, ciriculum is not much more than she would receive most average public schools. Books are outdated, tattered, and torn. She's bored to tears in most classes and is scared the school won't prepare her for what she needs in college. There are SOME good teachers. Opprotunities are not offered based on ability alone, so I've had to research gifted programs and apply outside of the school. My child definitely won't be there for high school.

My child went here about five years ago and I compared the scores of the school High Pointe and the public grade schools were higher. Now dont get me wrong but here they do teach a tad to musch bible verse then school work. I mean if you do wont them to learn bible verse you could just send them to childrens church and all that money you have to pay was too much for me. If you just wont your kids to be in Private school and still learn what they should be learning send them to Ashleys Private School on Beltline.

I think that Waterford Oaks is not a very good school at all. Most of the teachers there are all about a pay check and not the care and learning ability of the students. They put rules and guidelines into place for the school and parents to follow, but they only require the parents to follow them and not the staff. I would not recommend this school to my worst enemy.

TCS is an outstanding school with strong academic, sports and fine arts programs. The teachers and administration are not only talented, but very devoted to the students and the school.

I went To Trinity for three years and I am very glad that I changed schools two years ago. I remember the building of the new chapel and the renovation of the football field, not to mention the repainting of the gym and the entire school. Trinity was more focused on outward appearance and didn't notice the downward spiral of academic quality. Also, the elementary principle changed every year I was there. And my parents began to worry because several people in my grade were expelled from Trinity after also being expelled from a puplic school. Trinity will find time to take anyone's money. -Abby A.

This is an awesome Christian School-the academics are far more challenging than public schools. Music is a great opportunity they put on a all school Christmas Show complete participation. In the fifth grade you either play an instrument or sing in the choir. Art is lacking in the lower grades. The sports are limited because of the size of the school but plenty of opportunity to play football or basketball, cheer leading this year they started a Drama class. Parent involvement is encouraged and appreciated.

My son has attended TCS for 4 years and my husband and I have been impressed with his progress. We are also pleased with the teachers, they are very concerned with each atudent spiritual and academic performance. The only compliantI have regarding Trinity Christian School is the lack of stability of the elementary administration.

My daughter has attended this school for the past six years. She was doing very well until this year. Now, I'm being told that she has severe behavior problems and possible learning disabilities. Why was this not noticed earlier? Also, the administration of this school is very unstable. In other words, they change Principals of the elementary school every year. The cafeteria staff is very unorganized, just to mention a few problems.

I think that trinity is a rather good school. I went there last year and was satisified with their teachers and subjects. Ohh...and watch out for Mr. Cantalupo..He is a great teacher..strict but great..Overall.....Trinity is a school i wont forget.

My son started the school this past fall. He is a kindergartener and as any parent I was concerned about so many different things. However, being a public school teacher myself, I knew exactly what I didn't want. Trinity has been great especially their spiritual instruction. Their curriculum is strong and well above that of any public school system Two thumbs up for Trinity.
